Information technology (IT) has become a critical tool in the support of meetings and conventions, providing better business processes and customer service with reduced time and cost (Casanova, Kim, & Morrison, 2005; Yuan, Gretzel, & Fesenmaier, 2006). Many meeting and event industry professionals have employed IT, and some have expanded to information and communication technology (ICT) in order to increase connectivity as well as improve productivity and competitiveness. The new era of the Internet—called social web or Web 2.0—provides real-time connectivity among businesses and Internet users (Kambil, 2008). Social media has developed at a rapid pace into an important business tool for marketing and customer relationship management. The meetings and events industry is not exempt from this trend. The major goals of many meetings are to help their attendees learn something new and provide opportunities for networking; social media is well suited to achieve such goals. Many meeting industry practitioners consider this an age in which social media is changing the dynamics of live meetings. As social media continues to establish itself as an important tool for interaction during meetings and events, meeting planners are increasingly expected to incorporate this new tool into their programs to enhance the attendee experience.
